Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) instruction

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsive behavior. These symptoms usually start in childhood but can persist into adulthood.

Dietary Restrictions Improve Symptoms in 64% of Hyperactive Children

According to research, 64% of hyperactive children showed improvement in symptoms after five weeks of dietary restrictions focusing on rice, water, and white meat. Children with allergies are 2.8 times more likely to be hyperactive than non-hyperactive children.

Foods to Avoid:

  • Allergenic foods such as dairy products, eggs (especially egg whites in Taiwan), shellfish, peanuts, nuts, and mangoes.

  • Genetically modified foods like corn.

  • Artificial colorings (Yellow No. 4, Yellow No. 5, Red No. 6, Red No. 40), preservatives, and organophosphate pesticides.

  • Highly processed foods for children.

Experts recommend that parents of hyperactive children consider allergy testing for their kids. If a hyperactive child has very red lips or possibly allergic rhinitis (and possibly autism), it's important to clear stomach heat.
